I got one from Autodec a couple of weeks ago, looked & fit great
-
My daily drive Hilux, 3RZ + t3/t4 = 217rwkw@13psi
-
Try Autodec for carpets, just got a set for my Corona, it's good quality & not badly priced
-
KE70 Wagon Shocks for the rear, in the front you can use 4WD Carib front inserts (can't think of chassis right now), same body size, but 30mm shorter stroke. Or if you want to put a spacer in shock tube, then ST185 GT4 Inserts or AE92 Levin are much shorter.
Photo below is all captive with 3 or 3&1/2 coils removed all round, ke70 rear shock, carib front

Just cranked out a couple now. Turned out Average-Good. Text me if you wanna grab them

It will be Toughened glass then, which yeah you can't drill it will just explode if you try.
Is the window flat? if so just draw round it onto a bit of cardboard and mark where you want the holes (you will need to be pretty dead on) and take it to pretty much any glass place and they can send that cardboard pattern off to get toughened so you'll end up with a nice new window with the holes you want and it will have required safety stamps on it for the wof man
Its legal for us to cut holes in vans and put windows in so i don't see why you can do the reverse of that
-
Is it a factory side glass? if so it will most likely be Toughened but yes it will have a stamp on it.
What is that you are actually trying to do, i'm a auto glazier by trade i may be be able to offer some help
-
What kind of glass is it? as you can't drill Laminated or Toughened glass
-
I had a King Spring in my corolla snap in half from hitting a medium size pot hole. Never used or recommended them to anyone since
-
Also Palmside Motorsport in Hoon Hay Rd would be worth a shot
-
They have a number of options available, 2 or 3 different offsets to choose for each width
-
Thats the BC gear, it's a copy of the Greddy Design, except that the Greddy one's have a new Spindle incorporated into front, so no chopping or welding required.
-
They are priced by size, 13x6 is around $300 (US) per wheel, up to 15x9 which are about $450 (US) per wheel.
Then you gotta add on freight & possibly import taxes?
This is for brand new obviously
-
i got a set 14x6 for sale, same offset. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=145427783
Send me a pm if you wanna come try them on & we could work out a deal
-
Nah it sounds like the shocks are at the maximum extension and are preloading the springs making the ride very hard. When the car hits every bump the shocks max out steel on steel causing the harsh bang.
Yep you're right on the money there, i put the shocks in it, they're DX wagon shocks & are about 100mm shorter than what standard starlet shocks are. Was real mint when i had it on cutties, but i believe it now has standard springs back in it, & because thy're too long for the shocks they're basically holding them at full extension constantly
Put it back on cutties, they were all captive with those shocks, looked way better too
-
Every Certifier sets their own price. But they average around 350 - 400 mark
-
I rang him and as predicted he is unkeen to sell (even though he has four brand new ones)
Cheers anyway, can't say i blame him, Hoarding shit is awesome
-
were they not all originally gold? lhard to repaint because the center don't come out
No they were available in the two colour options, Red or Gold
-
Yeah maybe, i like them a lot, but not 100% sold on the idea of red centres, & i'm not really prepared to repaint them, rather keep them original
-
So i'm guessing you got Spencers set of 3, i was considering getting them as spares.
Yeah the boys at the local Toyota know me pretty well
-
Cheers to all for the comments,
Dat180, There are a full set of 4 formula stars, just rolled one out for the photo.
mixmasterlex, haha i always see you thrashing that starlet around, that car rules hard.
Unclejake, cheers for the offer, if you bump in to him then my all means ask the question, otherwise i'll just order one in from japan
-
